Summary: crash when ctrl-dragging an object and hitting escape key
Initial Comment:
Hi alltogether,
I received the following bugreport against the
debian-package of inkscape 0.40 by Hans Ulrich
Niedermann. I can reproduce the bug, but to regain
controll over my desktop it is enough here under xfce
to switch workspaces. I can then click "close" in the
segfault dialog-box. The URL in debian's BTS is
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=292552
With best regards,
Wolfi
To avoid panic reactions, please read all of the steps
before starting to follow them.
1. Draw some object, e.g. a rectangle.
2. Press and hold CTRL, and use the left mouse button
to drag
around the object. Keep the mouse button depressed.
3. Press the ESCAPE key to abort the dragging.
Now inkscape will crash, display an error message, and
lock all
keyboard/mouse use of the X11 server. So there is a
step 4:
4. Run "killall inkscape" from another console to get
access to
your X11 session. Yes, it still reacts to SIGTERM.
